The problem is that the driver assumes AN in a lot of spots even when connected to a passive tap because if you have a multispeed fiber, negotion is always TRUE! :( I guess my question is for the 1G only, I assume you turn AN off to make this go (that seems to always work). Thanks! -aps PS I know, I know, 1G AN sucks....btw, thanks Jack for being responsive to all of this stuff...
